                                    Excellent Caesar salad and the pork porterhouse was delicious. Drinks, especially the rye Manhattan were innovative. Servers were all pleasant and efficient, if maybe a bit overworked. We’ll certainly be back.

                                    I have had brunch and lunch here, but never dinner and I was not disappointed. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. I brought a friend who is accustomed to really nice restaurants and she really enjoyed everything about Cafe Terracotta. The vibe was light and happy. Something we all are in need of right now.
